BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO MOURN, FOR THEY WILL BE COMFORTED. ( MATTHEW 5:4 *NIV ) Dear Bereaved Families, When you lose someone that you love, take comfort in knowing that they are now with God. For it is written that when we die; THE DUST RETURNS TO THE GROUND IT CAME FROM, AND THE SPIRIT RETURNS TO GOD WHO GAVE IT. ( ECCLESIASTES 12:7 ) Therefore; BROTHERS, WE DO NOT WANT YOU TO BE IGNORANT ABOUT THOSE WHO FALL ASLEEP, OR TO GRIEVE LIKE THE REST OF MEN, WHO HAVE NO HOPE. WE BELIEVE THAT JESUS DIED AND ROSE AGAIN AND SO WE BELIEVE THAT GOD WILL BRING WITH JESUS THOSE WHO HAVE FALLEN ASLEEP IN HIM. (1 THESSALONIANS 4:13-14) So Families, take comfort in knowing you will see them again, for it isnt the end of them but only the beginning! The beginning of a much better life where; HE WILL WIPE AWAY EVERY TEAR FROM THEIR EYES. THERE WILL BE NO MORE DEATH OR MOURNING OR CRYING OR PAIN, FOR THE OLD ORDER OF THINGS HAS PASSED AWAY. ( REVELATION 21:4 ) Now I would like to share something with you that has helped many who have lost someone. It is called Safely Home. I pray that it will minister to those of you who have lost a loved one, remembering that they are now..... SAFELY HOME I am home in Heaven, dear ones; Oh, so happy and so bright! There is perfect joy and beauty In this everlasting light. All the pain and grief is over, Every restless tossing passed; I an now at peace forever, Safely home in Heaven at last. Did you wonder I so calmly Trod the valley of the shade? Oh! But Jesus love illumined Every dark and fearful glade. And He came Himself to meet me In that way so hard to tread; And with Jesus arm to lean on, Could I have one doubt or dread? Then you must not grieve so sorely, For I love you dearly still: Try to look beyond earths shadows, Pray to trust our Fathers Will. There is work still waiting for you, So you must not idly stand; Do it now, while life remaineth-- You shall rest in Jesus land. When that work is all completed, He will gently call you Home; Oh, the pleasure of that meeting, Oh, the joy to see you come!
